We are created for connection! Unfortunately, there is no shortage of forces that make connections with others and ourselves a challenge. This can lead to changes in mood, distress in relationships, and an overall feeling that something is not right. If you are here, I already know one thing about you: you are aware there is a problem, and you are courageous enough to reach out for help. I've been there. I hope that I can be here for you as a partner in creating change for yourself & your relationships.
To help my clients improve their moods, change their patterns, and heal relationships I use insights from my extensive training in Gottman (Level3), Emotion-Focused Therapy, CBT & ACT. My theology degree allows me to help Catholics & Christians who want a therapist who integrates faith, but I also work with clients who are not religious. I also use EMDR!
I have been a therapy client & a therapist. I always strive to be the kind of therapist that I would want. I invite client feedback so that I can be a better therapist for you each time we meet. While I supervise & teach new LPC-Associates, I'm still a voracious learner because there is always more to learn. I invite you to reach out if I can help.

If a therapist has a list of specialties that is a mile long, RUN! It's impossible to truly specialize in everything. I focus my practice on mood disorders (anxiety/depression), relationship related issues, and women's issues through the lifespan. I only see adults and also work with chronic pain/illness warriors (I am one myself)!

I use Gottman Therapy & Emotion Focused techniques with couples which integrate Attachment & Compassion. For individuals I utilize CBT skills, ACT, and offer online EMDR. Therapy can include spiritual integration, but this is completely at the client's request. Meaningful change change is our goal: you are the driver, I'll help with the map!
